My Gardener I see her among the daisies Weeding out distractors from her garden of colour. On hands and knees She loosens the soil With her trowel. Each plant knows her care And owes it's place to Her garden design. Bleeding hearts, lilies, forget-me-nots All grow among the rocks She deftly placed to accent garden spots. Her thumb is green But her heart is golden As she works among the daisies. believe in what your heart feels... [This message has been edited by scorpio (06-02-2003 03:19 PM).] |

(smiles) Yay! Oh Scorpio, this is beautiful, sweet friend, I believe gardening is truly an art made by God, to show how we are capable of giving life of our own, to the cherubs of the Earth and how a gentle grace makes the most beautiful magic happen! (big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Scorpio, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
